Pressure Management in Water Distribution Networks by Means of Pumps as Turbines: A Case Study in Northern Italy

Pressure Management in Water Distribution Networks by Means of Pumps as Turbines: A Case Study in Northern Italy

Pressure control by means of pressure-reducing valves (PRVs) is a possible strategy to reduce water losses in water distribution networks (WDNs). However, PRV replacement with energy-harvesting devices—such as pumps as turbines (PATs)—can lead to a more sustainable management of water systems. This...
